Catalyst 9.6 Drivers Released

[uclaLabrat]

9.6 totally busted my performance in COD WaW. Went back to 9.5, will try it out later.

EDIT: Want to retract that. 9.5 was still busted. Think it was because I changed some of the settings in CCC that busted my performance. Changed several of them back (stupid things like mipmap detail level and tenting) and it's pretty much fine now.

Weird thing was, I was getting like solid 55-70 FPS in COD4 and WaW, but it was stuttering like crazy. Not sure how much of it was server lag.

i am playing Fallout on a 4850, just put the new 9,6 on over 9,5 honestly didn't feel there's a difference. but some sources reported 9,6 fixed some speed problem over 9,5. so if you are running slow, why not give it a shot, wouldn't hurt.

I wonder how 9.6 plays with F@H GPU? (off to the DC section).......

Btw anyone play RTW with this release?
